gnutls_x509_crq_sign2(3)	     gnutls		gnutls_x509_crq_sign2(3)

NAME
     gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/x509.h>

     int gnutls_x509_crq_sign2(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq, gnutls_x509_privkey_t key,
     gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig, unsigned int flags);

ARGUMENTS
     gnutls_x509_crq_t crq
		 should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t type

     gnutls_x509_privkey_t key
		 holds a private key

     gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
		 The message digest to use, i.e., GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256

     unsigned int flags
		 must be 0

DESCRIPTION
     This  function  will sign the certificate request with a private key.  This
     must be the same key as the one used in gnutls_x509_crt_set_key()	since  a
     certificate request is self signed.

     This  must  be  the last step in a certificate request generation since all
     the previously set parameters are now signed.

     A known limitation of this function is, that a  newly-signed  request  will
     not be fully functional (e.g., for signature verification), until it is ex-
     ported an re-imported.

     After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of  dig may be GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN, and in that
     case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm will be selected.

RETURNS
     GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS	on   success,	otherwise   a	negative   error   code.
     GNUTLS_E_ASN1_VALUE_NOT_FOUND is returned if you didn't set all information
     in    the	  certificate	 request    (e.g.,     the     version	   using
     gnutls_x509_crq_set_version()).
